- 2 - HubSat4Di
Overview:
Altronix HubSat4Di Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Isolated Camera Power transmits UTP video, RS422/
RS485 data and power over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable. Unit provides 4 camera channels in a wall mount
enclosure. Video transmission range is up to 750 ft. max. per channel. Units are compatible with AC and/or DC fixed or
PTZ cameras when utilizing Altronix HubWayAv or HubWayDv Video Balun/Combiners. In addition, the unit features
individually selectable 24VAC or 28VAC electronically isolated PTC protected outputs with surge suppression. Optionally,
the HubSat4Di can be used as an accessory module to transmit video from up to 4 cameras over a single CAT-5 or higher
structured cable back to the HubWay, HubWayLD or HubWayLDH Passive and Active UTP Transceiver Hubs. In addi-
tion, the HubSat4Di provides power to these cameras locally to eliminate the possibility of voltage drop associated with
long cable runs.

Installation Instructions:
HubSat4Di Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Isolated Camera Power.
1. Mount unit in the desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top two keyholes in the
enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s
upper keyholes over the two upper screws; level and secure. Mark the position of the lower two holes. Remove the
enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install two fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two
upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws (Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 8).
Secure green wire lead to earth ground.
